In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, sits down with Abby Taylor, NTP, Certified Birth Doula, childbirth educator, and founder of Mirabelle Birth, to unpack a powerful, hope-filled story of natural fertility and conception through applying the Foundations of Health, learned through the NTA's Nutritional Therapy Practitioner Program.
For over a decade, Abby and her husband, Josh, journeyed through miscarriage, long and irregular cycles, rapid weight gain, and the emotional toll of living in the "maybe someday" of infertility. After years of feeling dismissed by conventional medicine and not wanting to pursue high-intervention fertility treatments, she discovered the Nutritional Therapy Association's NTP program—and everything changed.
By applying the Foundations of Health— nutrient-dense diet, digestion optimization, blood sugar regulation, quality sleep, stress management, joyful movement, and hydration —Abby watched her body begin to shift. Her cycles shortened, ovulation resumed, her inflammation markers dropped, and, to her complete surprise, she and Josh conceived naturally after ten years without conventional fertility treatment. Now, through Mirabelle Birth, she's refocusing her birth work to center on fertility nutrition, prenatal and postpartum nourishment, and hope-filled encouragement for women who want to enable and prepare their bodies for pregnancy.
If you're trying to conceive, supporting clients with fertility challenges, or simply want to understand how functional nutrition and holistic prenatal care can transform the motherhood journey, this conversation with Abby Taylor will encourage, equip, and remind you that your body was designed to heal.
